Essay/ Band 9
The diagrams compare the layout of Felix Stone in 1967 and 2001, illustrating the major changes that took place over this period.
Overall, the area underwent significant development, with the introduction of modern infrastructure such as a swimming pool, a car park, and wind turbines, while some natural and traditional features, such as farmland and the fish market, were removed.
In 1967, Felix Stone featured a fish market and a marina along the coastline. These were located adjacent to a pier extending into the sea. Nearby, a hotel stood close to sand dunes, and a café was positioned slightly inland. The surrounding landscape included a golf course on one side and farmland on the other. A high street with shops lined both sides of the main road.
By 2001, major transformations had taken place. The fish market and marina were removed, and wind turbines were installed near the dunes. A new car park was constructed beside the hotel, making the area more accessible. The coastline was divided into a public beach and a private beach, which was part of a newly built hotel complex that included a swimming pool and a tennis court. The farmland was replaced, but the golf course and the café remained unchanged. The overall infrastructure became more modern, with an increased focus on tourism and recreation.
In summary, Felix Stone evolved from a simple coastal town with a fish market and farmland into a more developed tourist destination with enhanced facilities.
